Problems We Solve

WERCS technicians are experts at diagnosing and fixing extraction booth issues that cost you time and money.

Hexane Flash Point Risk

Hexane has a flash point of -23C - MORE dangerous than butane. Hexane extraction requires full C1D1 classification and professional gas detection service.

Solvent Recovery Ventilation

Solvent recovery systems concentrate flammable vapors. Inadequate ventilation during recovery creates explosion risk. WERCS verifies CFM and negative pressure.

FDA/cGMP Requirements

Cosmetic and pharmaceutical grade essential oil production requires validated maintenance procedures and calibrated instruments.

No Equipment Service Exists

Equipment manufacturers sell and walk away. Zero dedicated service exists for botanical extraction facilities - until WERCS. We fill this critical gap.

Botanical Extraction Facility Service & Maintenance FAQ

Common questions about our services

Yes - the equipment is 95%+ identical. C1D1 booths, explosion-proof fans, gas sensors, PLCs, and ventilation systems are the same regardless of plant material. WERCS services the equipment, not the botanicals being processed.
Hexane has a flash point of -23C, making it MORE dangerous than butane (-60C flash point). Any hexane extraction facility requires full C1D1 classification with properly calibrated LEL detection and adequate ventilation.
Yes. Steam distillation requires confined space ventilation and gas monitoring. WERCS services the hazardous location equipment in any essential oil production facility.
FDA cGMP requirements demand validated maintenance procedures and calibrated instruments. WERCS provides documentation that meets pharmaceutical-grade audit standards.
